I thought my yellow hair would shine through… but this 1850s camera had other plans 🖤✨ My first ever tintype photo and I am obsessed with how it turned me into a timeless gothic queen. Zero filters.

The flower in his lapel suggests this was not an ordinary sitting. Daguerreotypes were expensive. Couples often chose them to mark enga
